How many turns do you put on your springs. I did 10? on an A&E. :)ThmbUp

When dad and I loaded ours, we didn't really follow the instructions.    We just rolled the fabric up against the RV and gave each spring a turn or two.    i??


But we also didn't have an A&E, we had a faulkner that was old, might not be able to do that with an A&E.

I didn't have a manual when I did mine either but, I did the same thing... a couple turns at at time.  Would have gone a LOT faster had I had a reference publication like we do now!

Here's the tensioning chart for A&E models 5000, 7000, 7500, 8000, 8500, 9000, 9500 & Grande Pavillion - all lengths.

We also have the diagnostic sevice manual which covers troubleshooting & repair of all awining components for the 8,000, 9000, 9500 & Grande Pavillion models.
